Intercity buses to Linhai leave from East Bus Station, they run more often and cost less than trains; book a day ahead on weekends.
Skip restaurants on the main square, walk two blocks into the alleys for cheaper dumplings. Try the riverside stall after 5pm for great soup dumplings.
City center mornings are peaceful, heat in July is brutal though. Street food stalls are worth it, just bring cash for small vendors.
Loved Taizhou's coastline and seafood markets, people were friendly. Not crowded like bigger cities, perfect for a 3-day chill trip.
Got a bit bored after two days if you only do museums, bring patience for slow service but the tea shops made up for it.
